Barakat, Inc. - Education For Women And Children In Afghanistan, Pakistan, And India
Submitted as: Barakat’s success story continues with each passin
Barakat’s success story continues with each passing day. It has indeed traversed a long path and yet shows no sign of slowing down. One thing that can be stated with conviction about Barakat is that it has been totally devoted to the noble ideal of providing exemplary education to the deprived lot in countries of South and Central Asia. Their policy of basic education is primarily directed towards women and children as these two sections often do not get access to education at all and become victims of discrimination and oppression. Each year, they serve above 3,000 children and women spread across India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. This is ample proof of the fact that within a short span of time, Barakat has managed to move much closer to their main objective of bringing education within everyone’s reach.
Barakat is associated with several other non-profit organizations as well and act as a bridge between such groups. This enables them to carry on with their activities in such a smooth manner throughout Central and South Asia. It obviously helps that the all the countries are linked to one another geographically, historically and culturally.
Their work does not end in offering basic education only. They are equally interested in providing access to higher learning for those who are capable of excelling in a particular stream and have the inclination to study more in order to make a difference to their lives. They organize fund raising campaigns from time to time which help them to move a step further to their goal. Their ultimate aim is to see all people living in Central and South Asia enjoying the fruits of education. Considering the dedication with which they work in order to fulfill their goal, the day is not very far when this pleasant dream would be realized.(read

Dedicated To A Cause
Submitted as: If an organization works for a noble cause, it can
If an organization works for a noble cause, it cannot expect to achieve its goal without dedication. A dedicated approach is an absolute must. Devotion and perseverance are qualities that should be intrinsic to any organization which has a noble cause in its agenda. This is what works in favor of Barakat. It is totally committed to its goal of educating the underprivileged people of Central and South Asia, especially women and children who do not get access to education under normal circumstances. It has been quite some that Barakat has been involved in this noble work. The best thing is that it has only seen a rise in its popularity and the reason can be said to be its sense of commitment and perseverance.
Barakat has always been very clear about its goals and that is the reason why it maintains a strict policy while making tie-ups. Barakat has a reputation to contend with and therefore, makes sure it does not associate itself with any organization whose credibility can be put to question or are not very consistent in their work and performance. Barakat ties up with only those organizations which are truly interested in furthering the cause of education and making it accessible in every remote corner of India, Afghanistan and Pakistan. If you have a look at their past associations, this would be very evident. They are very particular about their priorities and know what their goal is at the end of the day. It is this devotion and honesty that works highly in favor of Barakat.
Barakat also conducts interesting events every now and then where everyone has the liberty to join. The main idea behind these events is to spread awareness about the need for education. These activities do help in furthering their cause in a significant way.(read

The Basic Right Of Education
Submitted as: Nobody is stranger to the fact that there are some
Nobody is stranger to the fact that there are some basic human rights that are applicable to all and should not be discriminated against. One such right is that of education. Everyone has the right to educate themselves so that they can come out of the shackles of ignorance and build a better future for themselves. However, in reality, it does not happen so. There are a large number of people who remain deprived of the fruits of education because of which they are never able to rise above poverty and suffering. It is here that Barakat strives to make a difference.
Barakat is concerned with providing education to underprivileged people of India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. This is extremely helpful since education is the only way in which a nation can hope to progress provided it is available to all and not a select few. The main intention of Barakat is to spread the seeds of education to the whole of Central and South Asia. Their attention is directed more towards women and children as they are the most deprived lot as far as education is concerned. Along with that, they also provide ample scope for higher education for meritorious and keen students.
Barakat has been working towards their goal for quite some time now and has somewhat managed to realize their goal. It is true that there are still some sections of people who are yet to enjoy the right to education but they are gradually extending their hands to them as well so that no one is left behind in this endeavor. It is not an easy task considering they deal with citizens of not one but three countries, namely, Pakistan, India and Afghanistan. However, they have taken everything in their stride and battled all odds to achieve their purpose and the future looks bright for them.(read

The Success Story Of Education
Submitted as: Education is the basic fundamental right of every
Education is the basic fundamental right of every citizen. It is because Barakat had been able to understand this simple yet profound truth that it has become successful in earning a name for itself within a short span of time. It is only in the year of 1994 that Barakat came into being with the mission to better the state of the Afghan refugee population through the medium of education. It was the joint effort of Chris Walter, a carpet manufacturer based in US and Habibullah Karimi who was his business partner and a refugee hailing from Afghanistan. However, it did not take them long to make their presence felt. Now, the situation is such that the name of education and Barakat are taken in the same breath and very deservingly so considering the enviable work it has done in the field of education.
It has been a worthwhile journey for Barakat from that one solitary school in Pakistan to an organization who has been instrumental in building numerous such schools in not one but three countries, namely, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The most striking thing about them is that they have not taken a long time to spread their wings. It has been a remarkably shorter one. Their ultimate aim remains to educate every single individual, especially women and children, of Central and South Asia so that they too can enjoy one of the most basic human rights. It is because they have such a noble cause at hand that they have managed to garner unprecedented support from all quarters. Whenever they organize an event in order to promote their cause, lots of people volunteer to be a part of such activities thereby popularizing their mission. Though their dream has not totally been realized, they are confident that they would soon be completely successful in their endeavor.(read
